5: "Can miles truly separate us from friends? If we want to be with someone we love, aren't we already there?" - Richard Bach

6: “Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.” -Anthony Robbins

7: "Maybe it is our imperfections which make us so perfect for one another." - Emma | "Love is the voice under all silences, the hope which has no opposite in fear; the strength so strong mere force is feebleness: the truth more first than sun, more last than star." - E. E. Cummings | "I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in each other's dreams, we can be together all the time."- Hobbes

8: “The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.” -Rumi

9: "If I know what love is, it is because of you." -Herman Hesse

11: “I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out.” -Roy Croft

12: "Gravitation can not be held responsible for people falling in love." -Albert Einstein | " I was nauseous and tingly all over. I was either in love or I had smallpox." -Woody Allen

15: "The spaces between your fingers were created so that another's could fill them in." | "Don't let anyone ever make you feel like you don't deserve what you want. Go for it." -Ten Things I Hate About You

16: "Somewhere between laughing for no reason, stupid arguments, and making fun of each other, I fell in love with you." | "Best friend is someone who knows all about you and loves you anyway." - Elbert Hubbard

17: " I may not be a smart man, but I know what love is." -Forrest Gump | "We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere." -Tim McGraw | "If I had one gift that I could give you, my friend, it would be the ability to see yourself as others see you, because only then would you know how extremely special you are." -B.A. Billingsly | "Where there is friendship, there is life."

19: "A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us." -John Steinbeck

20: “Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.” -Peter Ustinov | "Life literally abounds in comedy if you just look around you." -Mel Brooks | "Improvisation is the expression of the accumulated yearnings, dreams, and wisdom of the soul." --Yehudi Menuhin | “Comedy is an escape, not from truth but from despair; a narrow escape into faith.” - Christopher Fry

22: "Film as dream, film as music. No form of art goes beyond ordinary consciousness as film does, straight to our emotions, deep into the twilight room of the soul.

23: “It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves - in finding themselves.” -Andre Gide

24: "My best friend is the one who brings our the best in me."- Henry Ford

25: "Well, it seems to me that the best relationships--the ones that last-- are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is...suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with." -Dana Scully
